Anchor Hocking Batter Bowl, 2 Quart Glass Mixing Bowl

The best bowl I’ve used for baking. Love the size, measurements, durability etc.

I have quite a few AH products since they’re USA made. The downside is, it’s heavy and will be heavier when filled so if you’re frail, or have arthritis, you may want to think about the weight. But it’s solid, has good depth and will come in handy.

I plan to use these for proofing/rising my dough. I love that they came with lids that seem fairly airtight. They’re sturdy. Amazon shipped them without padding and they arrived in perfect condition, which says something about how well they’re made. They’re 2 quarts, which is exactly what you want for 4 cups of flour recipes. Rising your dough in glass (for challah) is one of the preferred materials. They’re versatile. I can use these for measuring out other liquids when cooking and baking. The glass is stable and can be used in the heat. They fit my needs perfectly and should for most bakers because of what recipes call for… they make baking so much easier. I love the stability of Anchor Hocking glass. There isn’t anything that holds up as well. I worried about the heaviness of them, but they’re not too heavy. The handle is so comfortable. I have measuring glasses from another popular company, so these are my first by Anchor Hocking and they’re much more comfortable. I also like that the numbers are embossed on the glass, instead of printed in red. It seems easier to read, which is not what I’d expect. They fit in my fridge so much easier than my metal mixing bowls. I’m so happy I got them To sum up... Pros: easy to read, solid glass that won’t break even in shipping, comes with lids, good for proofing/rising dough, perfect for 4 cup flour recipes, comfortable handle, not too heavy, good size for the fridge Cons: lids aren’t perfectly airtight, but that is common with glass containers

I love how big it is! Extremely easy to clean and I love the embossed measurements are on the side! Best purchase made!❤️

Love this measuring vessel. I needed one bigger than 4 cups. This has been a great purchase. I find myself using constantly. I didn’t realize how much I would end up using it until I purchased it.

I love the bowl! I’ve only used it once so far, but it is sturdy and I expect no problem in the future, with the bowl… The lid, however, is an entirely different story. It does indeed snap over the top of the bowl, but it doesn’t fit completely onto the top of the bowl. I unfortunately found this out when I put bread cubes into it with cinnamon and sugar, snapped the lid on, and turned it upside down to coat the bread with cinnamon and sugar… and proceeded to see the floor coated too. The lid stayed on, but it did not hold the cinnamon and sugar inside. I’m only glad it was that and not the eggs I needed to add after. A bit disappointed with that. 5 stars for the bowl, 2 for the lid, but being generous with 4 overall.

Very nice glass bowl with molded in measuring marks that won’t scratch off with use . Great mixing/measuring bowl at a good price .

With the more recent problem of measuring cups that lose their markings in varying amounts of time, I was FED UP! I had one of these same capacity from kitchenaid, it did the best till the handle broke off from not alot of trauma. I just want a measuring cup that will not lose the markings that you can wash and rinse and measure and make pancakes with. THIS is the thing. The markings are molded into the glass itself. There is no etchings to weaken the glass and cause shattering, there is no painted on markings to flake off. It is just pure, glass measuring cup goodness that will last with a little care. It is a beautiful thing to behold...the glass is nice and clear and the markings are prominent enough. If you can't see you can turn it and the light will catch on the markings...you could even go over them with your own paint if you wanted. It has huge capacity to measure and dispense large amounts and we use something like this everyday in pouring water...into dogs food bowls, into our sun tea container, into our tabletop icemaker. I don't even wanna cook with it really...just measure sane temperature ingredients and pour. The cost was well worth it and you get a great value. Just don't go bashing it around because you could still chip it. I am so glad I bought TWO of these. An heir and a spare if you will. Anchor Hocking.....if you made THIS in every size, I would buy two each...seriously. You can even paint over the markings if you want and I don't care if they eventually flake off because the glass formed markings will still be there TO MEASURE WITH. I am so sick....and tired....of measuring cups whose markings flake off to the point that you can't measure with them anymore- from the little one ouncers up to this one. "Please save us, you're our only hope....".

Great mixing bowl & measuring jug, particularly the robust design, size and toxin free materials. I use it daily.

This really is a large jug! I was struggling from the photo to get an idea of size (something to compare it with in a photo would be good). Yes, it is quite heavy, but it would have to be at this size. I wanted it so that I had something to measure the rising of my bread dough. I usually make dough using 1 kilo of flour and this jug comfortably accomodates this quantity of dough. It is very difficult to accurately judge when a ball of dough in a bowl has doubled in size, with this jug you can see exactly where the dough comes to when it goes into the jug, and know for certain when it has doubled. The other fantastic thing is, that because it is clear you can also see the development of the dough, I can see the bubbles forming and know whether the bread is developing that nice, airy, holey texture. The other reason I love this jug is because it has raised measures and not printed ones. All the glass jugs I own eventually lose the measuring marks and become pretty useless for what they were designed for.This means that I have to replace a perfectly 'good' jug to be able to measure again, which seems to me to be very ecologically wasteful.These measures are permanent, so unless I manage to break it (and as it is a very sturdy jug, this seems unlikely) it should be of useful service for many, many years. Aside from breadmaking it is a very useful jug. It is big enough to use as a mixing bowl, it is great for recipes where you need large quantities of liquid and would have to fill a standard sized jug several times and I have even managed to fit it in the bottom of my small fridge. I am very pleased with this jug.

in un primo momento sono rimasta impressionata dalla grandezza di questa caraffa, ma per colpa mia che non ho immaginazione. sono due litri e quindi e' grande ma bassotta. l'aspetto e' robusto con quel vetro cosi' spesso e temperato. sono contenta del beccuccio che aiuta nel versare liquidi e semiliquidi. lo cerco sempre nelle pentole e pentolini o anche semplicemente terrine, ma sembra che i costruttori non ne capiscano l'utilita'. anche l'asticella graduata con doppia scala sia in inglese-americano sia italiano europeo e' ottima. finalmente non devo sempre andare a veder a quanto corrispondono le misure di tazze o pinte o non so che altro. non l'ho ancora usata ma sono sicura che andra' benissimo sia per contenere che per sbattere, specie la panna che di solito tende a schizzare. speriamo non cada altrimenti certamente ho paura che si rompera'. per ora sono soddisfatta dell'acquisto. avevo intenzione di comperare quella della pirek che secondo me e' anche ottima, ma con uno o due euro in piu' ho avuto una misura doppia. ottime tutte e due. io ho gia' una pirex. consegna sollecita e puntuale. tutto ok. consiglio se si ha spazio dove metterla anche se lo si trova essendo utile.

A heim pouco pesado pra finalidade dele. Mas é um ótimo produto, de muita qualidade.

I LOVE this batter bowl. It’s such superb quality and a super cute retro style. So easy to use and good for pancake batter. I am so happy :) thank you
